TECHNOFLUID NEAT CUTTING OIL 55
Neat Cutting Oil
TECHNOFLUID Neat Cutting Oil 55 is a high-performance straight (neat) cutting oil formulated for heavy-duty metal machining operations.
Blended from high-quality base oils and fortified with extreme pressure (EP) additives containing active sulphur and chlorine to withstand severe machining conditions.
Provides excellent lubricity and load-carrying capacity, ensuring smooth cutting action and superior surface finish.
Designed for operations requiring high tool protection, reduced friction, and efficient heat dissipation.
Suitable for use where water-based cutting fluids are not recommended.
Key Benefits
